I'm open to bringing it on board as a port, but I don't feel that carrying
a BGP daemon around in the base system is in the best interests of the
Project or our user base.

Let me just qualify this statement - I have not had the chance to have
anything more than a cursory glance at this code, this was a 'prima facie'
impression when I was heavily involved with other work. Not to disrespect
anyone else's hard work, as some people mistakenly seem to be under this
impression.
